Archimedes, Plato, Catalan, Johnson, non-convex, self-intersecting and quasi- regular polyhedra can be seen in Augmented Reality (AR) with the indicated markers, and through the links created in the markers, the 3D model of each polyhedron can be seen in Virtual Reality (VR).
A uniform polyhedron has regular polygons as faces and is isogonal, that is, it has an isometry that allows the set of its vertices to correspond to each other through symmetry relations. The notation used for the nth uniform polyhedron is Un.

Immersive rooms

Augmented Reality and 3D models



The Augmented Reality environments were created with the Jerome Etienne scripts: AR.js - Augmented Reality for the Web.
The orbit scripts developed by Kevin Ngo were used in the Virtual Reality pages of the 3D models: Orbit controls for A-Frame.
The immersive rooms use the physical properties of 3D objects developed by Micah Blumberg: Physics for A-Frame VR
The interaction controls used in the immersive rooms were developed by Will Murphy: Super Hands
